I think this "new integration architecture" is a very flimsy excuse. To host PWAs, a browser needs the ability to (1) ask iOS for permission to place an icon on the Home Screen, (2) launch certain "tabs" (Home Screen apps) in a separate window. Safari can already do this; they just need let others do the same. Since the PWA is hosted by a specific browser, I suppose you also need a dialog telling the user that XYZ app will also be deleted if they try to delete the browser.
What else am I not thinking of?
- szasamasa 3y agoI do not know. I think that it is a weekend job and then a month testing. If Apple does not retreat they will have to explain this. Especially since every other OS (macOS too) can do this. However, at the end of this day I think they just have a chess game to push it 1,2,3 years in the future... 1 year in EU, 2-3 years elsewhere. Meanwhile they broke web apps on iOS for a year. I just hope that some bigger company sues them for this after it is clear that it was not needed.
